RESPONSE: A thought exactly aligned with mine. When Crosby went down, I started to believe hockey was cursedSidney Crosby being the most beautiful hockey player in the world. That this concussion knocked him out of the game seemed to make hockey suddenly something less than it was. Maybe God hated hockey, since Crosby was the most complete playerand the most attractive athlete playing this sport. I stopped watching hockey until the playoffs tempted me back. Just because of Sid not being there. There was this void in the NHLno, in the entire world of hockey. Any good angels watching over hockey fled because the player they loved the most had been knocked out of the game by a cruel and perhaps even illegal shot to the head. For me, ever since Sidney Crosby came into the NHL, hockey seemed different. Crosby was much more to hockey than Tom Brady has been to the Patriots. I said, seventhray1 that hockey was finished. There was even talk that Sidney would retire. But it doesn't feel like that anymore. I am sure he's coming back. He is as winning an athlete as I can remember in my lifetime. Every young hockey player looks up to Sidney as possessing every desirable quality: both in terms of his skills, and in terms of his attitude and personality. Hard not to love Sid the Kid. Hockey will never be the same until he is playing again. Thanks for this, seventhray1. > > http://video.nhl.com/videocenter/console?id=82239 > <http://video.nhl.com/videocenter/console?id=82239> >
